Re: fglrx and software suspend

[Elias Gerber <egerber at gmx dot net>]

Hello

Thanks a lot for your message. The way you described to correct the error 
worked perfectly for me. I am using software suspend 2 with the fglrx driver 
on an IBM Thinkpad T40p now, and everything is working fine.
Now I can get on trying to get that damn tv-out to work ;)

greetings
Elias Gerber
